CAS Conference 2025: Culturally Relevant Pedagogies in the computing classroom

Culturally relevant and responsive computing aims to connect learners' diverse backgrounds, heritage, and perspectives with computing topics and activities. This session is a mixture of research and practical activities for attendees. We will share examples of teachers’ real-world classroom use to engage all learners, including those from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds. Teachers attending this session will be inspired to consider how they can adapt their own computing teaching and curriculum to be culturally relevant and responsive to their learners.
